are they quitting on blizzard, or does blizzard know? cus didn't blizzard authorize SC2Con or something? edit: Also, when they say they are dissolving but will work to help/create, may be they just mean "SC2Con" is dissolving but most or all of the people will simply create a "new" organization with new goal/purpose/approach, etc.? | ||

That is only if they place a similar system like before. It wouldn't make sense in this stage of the game. Besides, they would be idiots if they alienated... AN ENTIRE GLOBE. They should promote foreigners getting better and playing in their leagues. All they have to do is look at GOM's numbers of foreigner playing vs not. | ||

I'm guessing that some Koreans might try again in the subsequent qualifiers. | ||

As has been stated multiple times, stop spreading lies. SC2con didn't force anything, it was a decision by the players and teams themselves. | ||

It was because they couldn't beat the Koreans who were also trying to get one. ... So, maybe that would keep them out of the GSL. And I am pretty sure SC2CON had nothing to do with players not going to NASL - it was the teams that decided they didn't want to go. | ||

No point in having a committee that no one agrees with. More structure is good, but so far, such organizations in e-sports has set a bad precedent. | ||

On the contrary we need to look at the current state of kespa - blizzard relations, which quite frankly are pretty demolished. I think it all depends on Blizzards view on future developements in the korean esports market and the possible growth of esports in the west. I guess only time will tell.... | ||

what if this was no longer possible? It's always fun to see drama and it gives more opportunities for players to show there personality. I really hope we don't see some sort of organization pop up. It would only hinder SC2 in the e-sports world imo | ||
